Discourses of Brigham Young
Brigham Young, second president of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and first governor of Utah Territory, preached hundreds of sermons that were taken down in shorthand and printed in the Journal of Discourses. The apostle John A. Widtsoe selected passages from them and arranged them by subject in this volume, covering God and the gospel, the priesthood, family life, education, work, health, government and the building of communities in the Great Basin. The result is a portrait of Young's thought in his own blunt, practical and often humorous words. It is a central source for anyone studying early Latter-day Saint belief and the settlement of the American West. It is available to read online in your browser on Vinteuil, and the first chapter is free.
